Informateur Wijers is weggewerkt door de borrelclub-elite. Wel heel toevallig dat die club per se de VVD in het kabinet wil hebben.

Okay. So, who do I write to demand a second season of one of my all-time favourites, the crimally underrated Behind Every Star (2022)? Is this too much to ask? I think not. SO much fun, with an knock-out cast and hilarious guest roles! (Ep02 especially)

Back in 1973, when I was 10, I heard Green Onions for the first time. Still love it. Coolest song ever written. One of the few "classics" I quite simply never tire hearing.

Here's Mr. Cropper sitting in with Big Star(!) doing the Velvets(!!)

RIP Steve

SO difficult to choose because this is really my favourite year in music for a number of reasons. (And to think I was only 16!)

I'll choose 3 (though it's truly an impossible task)

In no particular order:
Gang Of Four - Entertainment
PiL - Metal Box
Talking Heads - Fear Of Music

But I ❀️ so many!

An absolutely devastating and massive blow to political coverage nationwide. @leximcmenamin.com has been doing work nobody else has, just truly leading on so many stories.

Beyond mind boggling decision tbh.

Seen in passing.

Old Leonard doesn't seem too pleased about this situation.

And yes, as you can see, Rubber Soul was indeed inside. However, its dire condition dampened any temporary enthusiasm I may have had. (The fact it was in mono was kind of cool, though...)
